Out of Scope
Definition
Work explicitly not included in the current project agreement.
In Plain English
Out of scope is like "not included in your rental agreement"—you need to pay extra for it.
Real-World Example
If your proposal says "logo design is out of scope," you cannot expect a logo without additional cost.
Why It Matters for Your Work
Clear out-of-scope items prevent scope creep and ensure accurate budgeting.
Common Mistake
Assuming related work is included. Always ask if you are unsure.
